Posting limits--not the same as setting limits

Alla:

Just want to comment on combining, I cannot comment individually on 
your point about trial period. I mean, I agree with you that combining 
multiple threads can make post too busy, you know?

But while we certainly encourage to combine posts on the same thread, 
limit does not mean that one HAS TO combine posts in the different 
thread you know?

I very rarely combine posts in different threads these days and for a 
long time for the reason you stated.

The main point to me of limit is sharing the list, you know, not making 
it HPFAlla list for example. I have a right to share my opinion with 
the list, but others have a right to, well, not being subjected to my 
opinion over and over and over. I mean, I am sure they had been anyways 
over the years, but you know what I am trying to say - balancing, etc, 
putting some sort of limits on me, as the one who often has the 
possibility to post a lot, which others may not have (not everybody's 
job involving being near computer many hours a day)

So combining CAN be effect of the limit, but it really does not have to 
be IMO. I mean, really if one wants to make a separate point, sure, 
make it tomorrow, or when 24 hours passed.

My opinion of course.
